Pat Buchanan: Is the American Empire Worth the Price? | VDARE - premier news outlet for patriotic immigration reform
So far this is the best solution I've seen. Pity that he is outside the mainstream.
Excerpt:
When the lesson sinks in that a war on the peninsula would be a catastrophe, and a growing arsenal of North Korean ICBMs targeted on America is intolerable, the question must arise:
Why not move U.S. forces off the peninsula, let South Korean troops replace them, sell Seoul all the modern weapons it needs, and let Seoul build its own nuclear arsenal to deter the North?
Remove any incentive for Kim to attack us, except to invite his own suicide. And tell China: Halt Kim’s ICBM program, or we will help South Korea and Japan become nuclear powers like Britain and France.
Given the rising risk of our war guarantees, from the eastern Baltic to the Korean DMZ–and the paltry rewards of the American Imperium–we are being bled from Libya to Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Yemen–a true America First foreign policy is going to become increasingly attractive.
Kim’s credible threat to one day be able to nuke a U.S. city is going to concentrate American minds wonderfully.
